IV.阅读理解（共两节，满分45分）

（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
(A)
English words don't stay the same. People need new words for new ideas and new inventions. Different words come into use, or old words are used in a new way.
Engli sh can be changed by borrowing words from other languages. The word “tomato” was borrowed from Mexico and“tea”came from China and so on. Now new space and science words are being borrowed from other countries, too. New words are formed by adding two words together. “Countryside” and “earthquake” are made up of two parts. Sometimes new words are shorter forms of old words. The word “photo” was made from “photograph” by cutting off the end of the longer word. “Plane” was made by cutting off the front part of“airplane”. The names of people and products can become new words, too. Our “sandwich” was named after a man called Sandwich and “sello tape”(透明胶带) was a name given by the company that first made the product.
( )46.New English words are needed because _____.
A. people use old words in a new way
B. the population is bigger now
C. the old words are not enough
D. new ideas and new inventions appear all the time
( )47.Which of the following words was taken to English from another country?
A.Plane.
B. Sandwich.
C. Tomato.
D. Countryside.
( )48.Which of the following words came from China?
A.Tea.
B. Earthquake.
C. Airplane.
D. Sello tape.
( )49.How many ways of developing English words does the passage tell us?
A.Three.
B. Four.
C. Five.
D. Six.
( )50.The main idea of this passage is _____.
A. that the English language is always changing
B. that there are new ideas in England today
C. how people name new products and inventions
D. how people use old words in a new way
B
The word “chicken” is used in so many English idioms. Do you know the following？
●Don't count your chickens before they hatch．
The expression “Don't count your chickens before they hatch” means “Don't expect that all your eggs, which have been laid, will hatch.” “Hatch” is a ver b, meaning the baby chicken breaks open the shell of the egg and comes out successfully. So the expression mainly means “Don't depend on things working out just as you want them to.” this saying appears in the story The Milkmaid and Her Pail in Aesop's Fables.
● A chicken-and-egg situation
In history, philosophers(哲学家) and scientists have met this dilemma(困境): Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Aristotle thought that both the bird and the egg must have always been there. However, more recently, scientists such as Stephen Hawking have argued that the egg came before the chicken. In common speech, the term “a chicken­and­egg situation” means “a situation where it is impossible to say which of two things appeared first and which caused the
other one.”
Don't be such a chicken
There seems to be an idea in English, somehow, that a chicken is a scared bird. Maybe that's not fair as most birds will probably fly away from you if you go towards them. But “Don't be such a chicken” means “Don't be so scared and get a bit more courage.” So if your f riend fear to do something, you can say to him or her, “Don't be such a chicken. Just have a try！”
51．The underlined word “hatch” means “” in Chinese.
A．孵化B．长大C．破碎D．出售52．We may say “don't be such a chicken” to someone when he .
A．is good at math
B．has difficulty making a choice
C．hopes things will work out just as he wants
D．is not brave enough to do something
53．What does someone get when he is given “chicken feed” for his work?
A．A high pay.
C．A lot of food.
B．A little money.
D．A good chance .
54．Which idiom can be used when we can't make a cause-and-effect relationship clear?
A．Don't count your chickens before they hatch.
B．Chicken feed.
C．A chicken-and-egg situation.
D．Chicken out.
55．The passage is probably from the section of in a newspaper.
A．health B．sport
C．travel D．culture
C
We’ve talked about snails (蜗牛) and their slow move . But much of the time snails don’t move at all. They’re in their shells (壳)---sleeping .
Hot sun will dry o ut a snail’s body. So at the least sign of hot sun, a snail draws its body into its shell and closes the opening with a thin cover .Then it goes to sleep. A snail will die in a heavy rain. So whenever it rains, it goes inside its shell house and goes to sleep. A snail can sleep for as long as it needs to. It can take a short sleep. Or it can sleep for days at a time .And it spends all the winter months in its shell, asleep.
In spring the snail wakes up .Its body, about three inches long, comes out of from the shell. When hungry, the snail looks for food. It can’t see very well. Its eyes ,at the ends of the top feelers (触角)are very weak . But its sense of smell is very strong. It helps the snail to the new greens. Then the snail’s little mouth goes to work.
A snail’s mouth is no longer than the point of a pin(针) . Yet it has 256,000 teeth! The teeth are so small that you can’t see them. But they do their work.. If you put a snail in a hard paper box, it will eat its way out. And if a snail wears out its teeth, it will grow new ones.
Mostly, a snail looks for food at night .But on cloudy days it eats in the daytime. It eats all day long. A snail can go on eating for hours and never feel full.

A group of graduates, quite successful in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life.
offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and different kinds of cups-porcelain(陶瓷的), plastic, glass, crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, some extremely beautiful--telling them to help themselves to the coffee.
When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said: "If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress.
Be sure that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. In most cases it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup,? but you consciously went for the best cups. And then you began eyeing each other’s cups. ”
“Now consider this: Life is the coffee; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain Life, and the type of cup we have does not define, nor change the quality of life we live. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee ."
"The happiest people don’t have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything. "

A complain about their stress in life and work
B express their thanks to their respected professor
C discuss something about their common interests
D recall the happy days when they had been students
（）62. The professor brought in a variety of cups because__________.
A.he was richer than his students
B.he was fond of collecting cups
C.there were too many people to drink coffee
D.the cups would play an important part in his talk
（）63. The problems and stress in work and life came from_________.
A.choosing the best of everything
B.failing to tell which was useful
C.not knowing how to make good use of what one had
D.too many people hoping to share the same thing
（）64. What does the underlined word “plain” mean in the passage?
A strange
B ugly
C pretty
D silly
（）65. From the passage we know that___________.
A.those who are the happiest always have the best of everything
